Lol. DC stands for district of Columbia. It's its own territory, pretty much. XD

@Gall: Interesting.

@Funk: So is this District of Columbia a part of the US or not? owo

Gallagher 06-08-2012 05:55 PM
D.C. is part of the US. It's not technically part of any state, however, because that would be lame and unfair and one state would get all the bragging rights. TECHNICALLY SPEAKING, Virginia isn't a state, it's a commonwealth.

But, let's face it. When you get down to it, none of those little details actually matter.

DC is a part of the US but not a state. Maryland surrendered a little tiny bit of land so that district can be made after the American Revolution

-sighs- -sinks in his chair- Seven out of forty done in section two... So much writing left to be done!

When you say commonwealth, do you mean the British commonwealth? Cause that's the only commonwealth I know of...

So D.C. is actually bundled up with the rest of the states and not on some island or anything?

Gallagher 06-09-2012 05:38 PM
Nooot exactly, no. Commonwealth just being a, uh... political system thing set up for the good of the people... Virginia has been a commonwealth since before we joined the US. For the states that use the commonwealth designation, it's more for emphasis than anything else, because it doesn't actually change anything.

And yeah, it's on the mainland, just close to the shore. Virginia and Maryland both gave up land to make the capital, the D.C. ended up giving Virginia's land back to us. It just keeps it on its own neutral grounds, rather than technically being part of one of the states and following the state rules as well.

so who's head of Ravenclaw again? XD

Kali_Namir 06-09-2012 10:57 PM
We don't have one yet Funk.

Gallagher 06-09-2012 11:02 PM
-flips through pages- ... I'm feeling really good about this, but starting to question if it'll fit... -rubs eyes- Some... 16 sections left to go, I think.

Kali_Namir 06-09-2012 11:04 PM
I can make it two posts...one for wood and one for core.

Gallagher 06-09-2012 11:07 PM
Eh heh, I hate to bring this card up, but if you want, I can put it up myself when it's done. And I think it might be a tiny bit more than wood and core.

Kali_Namir 06-09-2012 11:15 PM
Lols...sure...forgot you were an actual site mod for a little while there...oops

Gallagher 06-09-2012 11:20 PM
Eh heh heh... You're not the only one. Don't worry about it.

Is there a particular post you'd like it in? I think I'll either finish tonight or tomorrow.

Kali_Namir 06-09-2012 11:26 PM
You can put it on the first reserved ones. However many you need (just not all of them though) lols...I may end up deleting the white and black lists and moving things up...and possibly the links out...

Gallagher 06-09-2012 11:30 PM
Personally, I've never been a fan of white and black lists. Good friends know who they are, just as people that don't get along with you know who they are. Never made much sense to me to list them all. -shrug-

Only 11 more woods to finish up.
